[Solved] CL_FlushEntityPacket

If you are getting CL_FlushEntityPacket Warnings this typically means that either:

Your internet connection or the server's internet connection is having problems.
Your connection is overloaded, for example running a peer-to-peer file sharing application in the background.
There are other computers on your local network using your internet connection.
The server you are on has its network connection overloaded.
You are running on a wireless connection with a poor or inconsistent signal.
You have a Virus or Trojan or Internet Worm infection that is generating traffic.
You are connected to the internet using a dial-up or other low-speed connection.
You have your rate or cl_updaterate or cl_cmdrate settings too fast for your internet connection.

You can help to identify and eliminate the source of your problem by:

Shut down all unnecessary programs on your computer before playing.
Disconnect all other computers in your household to see if they are causing the problem.
Scan all computers on your home network for virus/trojan and spyware.
If you are running on a wireless network, try connecting using a direct ethernet cable and see if the problem goes away. You will probably have to disable the "Wireless Zero Configuration" service while you are playing as well.
Safe rates for dial-up connections are typically around 3500-5000, while broadband connections should be able to safely run 30000 or better. You set this in your game console (~ typically) by entering: rate <value>.
The default cl_updaterate is 20, setting the value to a higher number increases the download demand on your connection. Set this in your console: cl_updaterate 20.
The default cl_cmdrate is 30, setting the cale to a higher number increases the upload demoand on your internet connection. Set this in your console: cl_cmdrate 30.

Lost Egyptian City

Lost Egyptian City Found Under the Sea After 1,200 Years! Finally, the lost Egyptian city of Heracleion has been revealed after spending 1,200-years under sea. Researchers discovered amazingly well-preserved artifacts 30-feet under the surface of the Mediterranean Sea in Aboukir Bay, near Alexandria that tell the story of a vibrant classical-era port.

[Knowledge-base] Computer Drivers

What are drivers?

Whether classified as device drivers or software drivers, they are small software programs.
Drivers are crucial to the communication between your hardware devices, software and operating system.
Hardware, such as scanners, requires specialized commands, but software sends more generic instructions.
When you hit print in Microsoft Word, the command is translated by the driver into a command that the printer understands.
Some devices might function in what is called "generic mode" without drivers; for example, your display might perform only in low resolution mode.
This means you are not getting your money's worth out of the investment you made in your hardware.
If you upgrade your operating systems, purchase a new computer or if your hard drive crashes, you will need to install the correct drivers.

Why you need the latest drivers?

They will help ensure your system continues to be stable and operate smoothly.
Drivers are susceptible to corruption; if this occurs, to your modem driver for example, your internet connection will not work properly.
Companies often update their drivers more than once a year.
A major reason for an updated driver to be released is to fix a bug.
This obviously will enhance your equipment's performance.
As well, updated drivers can bring with them new features.
By ensuring you have the most up-to-date drivers, you can be sure to get the most out of your PC.

User-mode and Kernel-mode Drivers:

A processor in a computer running Windows has two different modes: user mode and kernel mode.
The processor switches between the two modes depending on what type of code is running on the processor.
Applications run in user mode, and core operating system components run in kernel mode.
Many drivers run in kernel mode, but some drivers run in user mode.
Device drivers, particularly on modern Microsoft Windows platforms, can run in kernel-mode (Ring 0 on x86 CPUs) or in user-mode (Ring 3 on x86 CPUs).
The primary benefit of running a driver in user mode is improved stability, since a poorly written user mode device driver cannot crash the system by overwriting kernel memory.
On the other hand, user/kernel-mode transitions usually impose a considerable performance overhead, thereby prohibiting user-mode drivers for low latency and high throughput requirements.
Kernel space can be accessed by user module only through the use of system calls.
End user programs like the UNIX shell or other GUI-based applications are part of the user space.
These applications interact with hardware through kernel supported functions.

[Tutorial] Update your drivers

Turn your browser into notepad

We all came across daily in need to type down something real quick so that we don't forget it later on. Sometimes its tedious to minimize the browser, create a new text document and paste/type content over there. If you are facing this problem and need a quick solution to write down and dump your thoughts in a text editor to free up your mind then you'll be happy to know that you can do it within your browser with just opening a new tab and without installing any extensions/add-on.

The trick is simple and uses an attribute of HTML5. The attribute used is contenteditable. So how does it works, well it's simple! The contenteditable attribute is an enumerated attribute whose keywords are the empty string, true, and false. The empty string and the true keyword map to the true state. The false keyword maps to the false state. In addition, there is a third state, the inherit state, which is the missing value default (and the invalid value default). The true state indicates that the element is editable. The inherit state indicates that the element is editable if its parent is. The false state indicates that the element is not editable.

Ok, but how to use it? It's as easy as 1-2-3:

Open a new tab/window in your browser
Type data:text/html, <html contenteditable>
Hit enter and you are ready for your notepad

An awesome Auto Driver [MUST READ]

(IF YOU ARE GOING TO SHARE SOMETHING ON YOUR WALL TODAY, SHARE THIS)

Annadurai owns an Auto Rickshaw(similar to Taxi) in Chennai City Tamil Nadu, India. Similar to the other Auto-drivers he also does the same thing but What makes his auto from other Auto's is he provides a lot of things inside the Auto for the passengers/customers .

Which are

1. Free mobile battery charger
2. Watch TV for Free of cost
3. Free WiFi
4. Free Books to read
5. Bumper prize contest for customers
6. Refer a poor child for Studies
7. And discount in fare for teachers and on special days.
8. Mobile and DTH recharge

Annadurai is now 29 Years old.His main goal is to get his customers feel happy and he needs customer satisfaction . The vehicle is WI-Fi enabled and, if you're not carrying a laptop or smartphone to connect to the internet, Annadurai will slip you a 10-inch tablet. He carries an internet dongle attached to a WI-Fi router and offers free access to the internet. "Most people who take my auto work for IT companies and I know access to the internet is important for them," Annadurai says. "It takes about half an hour to cover the distance between Thiruvanmiyur and Sholinganallur.Why waste that time?" Says Annadurai.

The auto also has lots for magazines and newspapers that contain the latest editions. Annadurai spends 4,000 Rupees a month on subscriptions to 35 various news publications. There are dailies for the customers who need to keep up on the news, weekly magazines for passengers who are taking a long ride, and glossy fortnight-lies for those interested in lighter reading.

Annadurai spends more than 5,000 to give his customers an auto ride like no other in the city, yet makes a good living, taking home a profit of around 1,000 a day. "That is more than enough for a bachelor like me," he says. "I drive from 8am to 1pm and from 5pm to 11pm," he says. He charges Rupees 15 for the 11km route he covers, while other share auto drivers demand 20 for the same distance. "Money really isn't too important to me," he says. "What gives me pleasure is that people remember me and are grateful for the service I offer," Annadurai Says.

Decks cleared for Tejas IOC-2

India's Light Combat Aircraft (LCA) Tejas cleared a critical test point on Saturday, for its much-awaited Initial Operational Clearance (IOC-2), by firing an infrared (IR) seeking air-to-air R-73 E missile. It was for the first time the Tejas proved its air defence role by firing a missile at a target using an onboard fire control radar, while the earlier tests were done using a helmet-mounted display (HMD) system.

The test also paved the way for the IOC-2 declaration, now confirmed to be held in Bangalore on December 20. Defence Minister A K Antony will lead a power-packed delegation for the December 20 event, for which the preparations have already begun at the Old HAL airport.

What does GmbH mean?

Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung (abbreviated GmbH, in Austria also GesmbH or Ges.m.b.H.), German for "company with limited liability", is a type of legal entity very common in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and other German-speaking Central European countries. The name of the GmbH form emphasizes the fact that the owners (Gesellschafter, also known as members) of the entity are not personally liable for the company's debts.

The GmbH has become the most common corporation form in Germany, since the AG (Aktiengesellschaft), the other major company form corresponding to a stock corporation, was until recently much more complicated to form and operate. In Germany, there are two types of companies: publicly traded and privately held.

The acronym 'GmbH', which is written after the name of the company, designates a company as private in Germany. The letters stand for Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung which, translated literally, means a 'company with limited liability'. GmbH companies are incorporated and, as such, are legal entities unto themselves. These companies must have a minimum of two partners and may be, but do not have to be, owned by a public company.

German companies that are publicly traded are designated as such by the letters 'AG' after the company name. 'AG' is an abbreviation for the German word Aktiengesellschaft, which literally translates to 'corporation' in English.

Sachin getting BHARAT RATNA

We are not against that Sachin getting BHARATRATNA.
It's most Happy moment for all Sachin Fans.

But Who is Dhyaanchand & Why People asking to give him Bharatratna...?

1)
Before Independence When INDIA went on a Tour,
INDIA Won 3 Olympic Gold medals in Hockey. In Olympic Games We Played 48 Games and Wins all of them.!

2)
INDIA was Unbeatable in Hockey for 20 years.
We defeated America in all the matches and since than America banned Hockey for the Next Few Years.
Can you imagine what an achievement it was.!

3)
Shree Dhyaanchand was among those Who made Hitler his Fan and He requested to accept Germany Citizenship and play for Germany & in return he will get as much as Money and a he will be head of his Army.!
but He refused saying he does not play for money but for Country.!

4)
How he made Hitler his fan..?
When he went to Germany for Hockey World Cup he was injured by Germany Goal Keeper.!
In return he Ordered his Team mates to take revenge..!
Can you imagine someone challenging Germany citizen in front of Hitler..!
He by passed the ball from Goal keeper but didn't do a Goal.,
This was the biggest shame for Germany and Hitler was impressed by his answer..!

5)
There was a match When he didn't Score a Single Goal.
On this he argued with match referee that the Goal post length is short because I can't do a Goal.
This was found correct and goal post length was increased & latter he scored 8 goals..!

6)
HE WAS THE ONLY INDIAN WHO HOISTED INDIAN FLAG BEFORE INDEPENDENCE NOT ONLY IN INDIA BUT IN GERMANY..!
WE WERE RULED BY BRITISHERS AND NOT ALLOWED TO TAKE OUT FLAG BUT HE HIDE THAT IN HIS NIGHT DRESS AND TOOK IT TO GERMANY.
IT REQUIRES A LOT OF GUTS.!
ON THIS BRITISHERS ANNOUNCED IMPRISONMENT BUT HITLER DIDN'T LET THIS HAPPEN.!

7)
During his last time he became So Poor that he didn't had Money to have Food, again he was offered a Coach Post by America and Germany but he refused saying if he teaches Hockey to them than INDIA will no more be a Champion in Hockey.
but our Govt didn't offer him anything & it was INDIAN ARMY Who helped him.!

Once upon a time he went to see a Hockey match at Ahmadabad but was not allowed in Stadium Saying We don't recognize You..? That game was attended by Jawaharlal Nehru.!

9)
Finally Cricket Icon Sir Don Bradman said "I'm a fan of Dhyaanchand & he scores Goals more easily than I Score runs.!"

Do you think he should be the 1st Sportsman for whom all the rules should have been amended and awarded "BHARAT RATNA"

THIS IS SHOCKING HE IS NOT A BHARAT RATN AS PER OUR GOVT BUT MORE THAN 50 COUNTRIES HAVE AWARDED HIM WITH MORE THAN 400 AWARDS.

THIS IS BEFORE INDEPENDENCE,
WHAT A STRUGGLE.

HATS OFF SIR....
